🌴📙Tropical Standard Book: amzn.to/432g9Jh
When I first came across a picture for the Bird of Paradise I knew I had to make it. Upon further review, the recipe did require some additional prep and a couple bottles that were unavailable to me at the time. Regardless of the ingredients list, it just looks like a drink that you want to make.
If you can find a bottle of St. George Raspberry Brandy I'd suggest picking it up. If you can't find it, Schladerer Himbeergeist Raspberry Eau de Vie is a suitable alternative and if you pick up one of these bottles I do plan on coming back to it in the near future so we can use it in other cocktails.
The origin of this drink is from Charles H Baker's Gentlemen's Companion which you can view online here: euvs-vintage-cocktail-books.c...
The drink is also featured in Beachbum Berry's Potions of the Caribbean: amzn.to/3CwvRRt which is a must-have book.

Wow, I have St. George Raspberry Brandy and now I can finally use it😮

@joecolucci9524 5 месяцев назад

It makes a phenomenal split-base sour with gin!

@als.2983 Год назад

This drink looks great. For me, this is one of those drinks I "tag" to make but rarely get around to putting in all the work to get/make all the ingredients. Thanks for putting in the effort to show me what I am missing ... maybe one day.

Looks amazing, I'm a fan of the Ramos Gin Fizz. I've seen a variety of cocktails named a Bird of Paradise. Some are just basically a variation of the Jungle Bird.

@MixingUpTiki Год назад

Love the honest review, "I just don't know what I'm tasting." lol

@makeanddrink Год назад

Has to be that Raspberry Brandy. So unusual, it a good way.

@MarkusJevring Год назад

That looks and sounds amazing. A lot of work for those syrups, but still. I can see a whole weekend of these things =)

@makeanddrink Год назад

Exactly. And they'll last a couple weeks. I made about 6-8 last weekend for some family and pretty much finished what was left over. 100% worth if for a crowd. Making a single drink, probably not.

@jmc4eva 11 месяцев назад

Hey Derek, love all the videos - was revisiting this one today and wondered if something like Chambord would work in lieu of the Raspberry brandy? Or is it really a Dry "essence" of raspberry that the recipe is calling for?

@makeanddrink 11 месяцев назад

I don’t think so. Different raspberry flavor and too sweet. But if you didn’t have the raspberry brandy or want to buy it, I’d suggest using something more neutral like an unaged brandy or Pisco. Or just upping the gin. Still different but closer than using a liqueur.

@bigmountain19 11 месяцев назад

Awesome video. As usual you can’t find any of these liquors in Canada. I just made my own crème de mure. I subbed the 1/2 ounce of brandy with 3/4 ounce of crème de mure , and did 1/2 ounce of simple syrup, and 1/2 ounce of crème syrup. Really interesting drink. I’ve decided to infuse raspberries into vsop brandy so I’ll report back in a month on how the original recipe compares

@makeanddrink 11 месяцев назад

Nice! I bet that brandy will turn out well. This drink with the cream syrup and gin is a good launching point to try with other liqueurs and flavors.

@Bogdan0207 Год назад

Hi Derek! I have a falernum syrup in my bar, but there are recipes which require falernum liquor. Will I achieve a good result just combining syrup with spirit, vodka or white rum maybe? And if yes what are the proportions? Because I don’t know how much less syrup I should add in my cocktails comparing with the liquor to keep the same level of sugar

@makeanddrink Год назад

I would just use what you have but slightly less. The Velvet Falernum is only 11% ABV, so there’s no real need to add alcohol to your syrup to replicate ABV. But your syrup is probably much sweeter, which is why I’d just use less of it in place of the velvet falernum.

@OneDrinkThreeBars Год назад

I haven't heard of this drink before, and i love making Gin fizzes. I've experimented a lot with them, but I've not done such a tiki one. Question - what does the citric acid do for the raspberry syrup?

@makeanddrink Год назад

I don’t think the recipe explains the citric acid, but I think generally it’s used to extend shelf life and it might reduce oxidation as well. Another purpose might be to get the syrup to match the acidity of whole raspberries, but I’m not sure.

@OneDrinkThreeBars Год назад

@@makeanddrink Interesting! I've made the syrup before by just mashing up raspberries and throwing them in some simple syrup. It came out fine, but maybe I will look into some of these more advanced techniques and see if I can tell a difference.

@makeanddrink Год назад

This technique worked great for raspberries. They basically completely dissolved. I did it with strawberries and while it still worked, there were a lot of solids left over.

@WhoKnowsNose Год назад

Something I've wondered..Does the soda water not lose its carbonation when blending?

@makeanddrink Год назад

In classic tiki recipes or ones updated from classics the idea is to put the soda in the drink mixer tin before blending. You loose quite a bit of the carbonation, but it’s adding dilution and still does keep some bubbles to help add texture without being a carbonated style drink. I don’t suggest doing this in a shaker tin.

@robertpettigrew9042 Год назад

Derek, what else would you use the cream syrup for?

@makeanddrink Год назад

Not sure yet, but would make a great whipped cream.

@anthonyglovan5985 Год назад

Can you link to where you found the glass? I've been looking for this for awhile, but the ones I've found are similar but not quite right

@makeanddrink Год назад

amzn.to/3qPxlnx they’re delicate. Already broke one in the dishwasher.

@jurispurins8065 Год назад

@CodyOnYT Год назад

I’m not sure if Derek is using the exact same one, but the Tall Cocktail Glasses by Lemonsoda are very similar.

@makeanddrink Год назад

@firebert05 Год назад

This cocktail looks really special. I don’t have raspberry brandy available. Could raspberry liqueur work, or would that throw off the balance?

@makeanddrink Год назад

I don’t think so. You’ll get that flavor from the raspberry syrup and the brandy offers a far different taste. If I was subbing out the raspberry brandy I’d probably try an unaged brandy or a Pisco.

@firebert05 Год назад

@@makeanddrink I'm infusing Pisco with red raspberries for a week; once strained ill use it in place of the raspberry brandy. fingers crossed it plays well in this cocktail.

@Noronanian Месяц назад

Can you sub the raspberry brandy with raspberry vodka? Its impossible to get that brandy in norway...

@makeanddrink Месяц назад

Not really. That would be artificial flavored whereas the eau de vie is distilled from the fruit, like a brandy. I’d probably just sub in a neutral brandy or Pisco before flavored vodka.

@Noronanian Месяц назад

@@makeanddrink Raspberry infused brandy comes to mind, why not just take the old isi gourmet whip siphon into use? :)

@makeanddrink Месяц назад

Not sure about the isi. The brandy tho is different than an infusion because it’s a spirit made from the fruit. So it’s distilled from the fruit but there’s not actual fruit in it. Captures some of the flavor compounds but not the fresh fruit taste.

@Noronanian Месяц назад

Improvising is always a good option

@Succumbed2Rum Год назад

Would have expected it to taste like raspberry...kind of weird that it doesn't actually. Store bought raspberries might have to do with that, they can vary quite a bit in flavor.

Thank you! The glasses I used are different than the Libbey ones but if I could go back I’d get the Libbey as I think they’re thicker. I already broke one of mine in the dishwasher.
